The perception of unfairness, actual unfairness and inconsistent administration of human communities often has a detrimental effect on the mental health of some people. An interest in fair administration can be very supportive of people who are sensitive to unfairness or to the perception of unfairness.

Likewise, some of those who laid the foundations for modern science and modern medicine by their attention to consistency and accuracy that contravened prevailing community standards were often shunned even to the point of death, but their efforts continue to save and improve lives now centuries later. A troublesome rain today can nourish life for the future.
>I feel deeply offended and put down that it is implied if I do not take the poster's (so) viewpoint, that I promote "unfairness" and any/all of my posts are "troublesome".
Thanks,
